Gangin with some friends tonight and we're all thinking of thriller and heist movies. It's my turn to pick the film of the night, problem is I don't watch movies all that often and I don't want to accidentally pick something shitty.

Suggestions please!

    Seconded on Heat. A great example how older movies had such masterful pacing compared to what we get today.

    Then: takes its time, long diner / loading dock scenes to establish tension + characters, explosive payoff

    Now: thou shalt have no fewer than seven action sequences, each shall be no more than eight minutes apart least the audience literally die
